About Us

Established in the early 1980's, we provide continuing professional development and networking opportunities for the Institute's members and students living in The Isle of Man. Our events are also open to free subscribers and non-members who would like to learn more about the Institute.

The aims of the branch are:

  • To support continuing professional development and networking opportunities.
  • To promote the profession in the Isle of Man.
  • To support and encourage our students.

Wellbeing

How are you? No, How are you really? It is a question that is often asked without thought, the reply never a full answer. Over the coming months we will be addressing mental health and the stigma surrounding it that still exists today. Mental Health is regularly in the news and can have a huge impact on our everyday life. Even living on the Island, we are aware of the impact mental health has on our community.

It is with that in mind the Council resolved to establish a Wellbeing Committee which was approved at the recent AGM. To launch the Committee we asked Isle Listen to give a presentation to members on stress, how to recognise warning signs and how to deal with excessive levels of stress. We do not want this to be a one off presentation and would like to build on it to issue regular updates to members and provide information on how we can all look after our mental health better, together with providing helpful links to other help that is available on the Island.

The Paradox of Risk

Risk is now a mainstream topic of conversation. In the past, risk was associated primarily with fast-moving innovative businesses (and with particular events such as product launches); but the UK’s risk landscape has changed radically in the last decade.
